Procrustus & Granamyr delayed

Just got this email from Matty.

Dear Club Eternia® Subscriber,

We wanted to let you know we've just heard our shipment of Procrustus™ figures has been delayed. We'll receive him in waves and will ship out subscription orders as supplies are received. If you have multiple subscriptions that are combined, your orders will be held until Procrustus™ arrives. We're hopeful the delay won't be too long, but plan on an approximate 1 to 3 week delay just to be safe.

Although he's not a subscription item, we also wanted you to know that Granamyr™ is delayed as well. If you order him during our regular sale on Monday, December 17th at MattyCollector.com, any additional products you order at the same time will be held until Granamyr™ arrives. Please order Granamyr separately if you don't want your order held.

You've gotta be yanking me, same crap as last year. I'm usually not this upset, but they know more than 3 days before a sale that the shipment is gonna be delayed. Just send me what is available now and send me the rest later. I know it's probably factory issues and things out if Mattel and lets face it, he'll be blamed anyway, toyguru's hands. But it's just infuriating that this is two years in a row now.

I got it too, but luckily my subs shipped out overnight and will be here on Wednesday.

Mine shipped too. Maybe theyre trying to be kind to those of us who put in the early TOD Sorceress who they kept waiting
I am mildly concerned as to whether Procrustus will be in there.. epecially as hes on the bill, so ill be taxed (on 3 of them) Im sure he must be.. it would appear they must have had some stock.

Eh that sucks some, but honestly I'll be pretty busy until the 2nd week in January with family and friends and Christmas, so it doesn't bother me that much honestly.

Right or wrong, buying a sub tells Mattel you want more MOTUC figures. Not buying does tells them you don't. Don't let MOTUC end early because you might not like their marketing strategy! Plus polls show you won't regret subbing!

Well, we heard Granamyr would be delayed already....if I order him, I seriously hope he doesn't come too late, my sub starts next month, and it's a $55 month....so long as Ram Man & Netossa both come like they are supposed to.

What is funny though, that for the first time I got the "Dear Club Eternia® Subscriber," E-Mail....I have never gotten one before, and I got it to both E-Mails I use....and I only signed up for the sub with one E-Mail for the sub, which doesn't start until next month....so either I am special and they have both of my E-Mails somehow....or everyone got this message....

Well it's good to see we can all rely on Matty in December,what's a little more concerning is that this is the same crap as last year and that ended up pushing delays into January.
On top of that Granymyr was already pushed back because of delays (suppose to be sept. figure).

I never received Demo man until February this year,who's thinkin Ram man will be delayed.

Yeah I'm annoyed that the shipment is delayed and I won't receive my figures for maybe 3 weeks but I am beyond PEEVED that now my son will only have printed receipts and an email to open on Christmas morning instead of his figures that he is really excited for.
